    Evidence? People who believe in Brexit-At-Any-Cost don't care about evidence. They don't care if Brits lose their jobs. They don't care if we destroy our European neighbours economies..


    It's Brexit at ANY cost....it's the will of the people....blah blah blah...


    Revoke Article 50. It's the only sensible thing to do. I'm sick of listening to the inane ramblings of Leavers who want to leave at any cost.

    The debate is post evidential now. There isn’t nothing to hear but Brexit at any price, but no evidence as to what this will mean for everyone.

    Sadly, many of those who advocate a no deal exit are the ones who will suffer the most from it. We are still in EU so all is fine for the moment.

    But Remain supporters and parties have a lot to answer for too. They are abysmal at getting their points across and they should not be.

    Balanced information is essential now.

    My vote to leave was partly driven by personal grievance. As an English taxpayer and the victim of an unfair funding settlement from the UK Treasury in comparison to Scotland, I voted Leave to inflict Brexit on the populace of a pro-EU Scotland and send a message to U.K. politicians who seemingly couldn’t give a stuff about austerity blighted England.
    As regards an EU law/rule I wanted rid of, I voted Leave to end the situation where EU migrants had instant access to in work benefits.

    Well that’s worth trashing our economy for. Never mind the economy of our nearest neighbours the Irish. Just in case it’s not clear I’m being sarcastic.

    You need to define what “crashing the economy” entails.

    Why?

    Would it actually make any difference to you or anyone of your ilk?

    There is still time for the HoC to pass a ban on a no deal Brexit into law.

    Save us from the no deal genus.

    It’ll just be helpful that’s all.
    Do you deal in just hyperbole or is there substance in your argument?

    20 million people didn’t vote in the referendum. 16 million voted Remain. Leavers aren’t the majority.

    If only Remain side said exactly what you said there at every opportunity.. and include ALL our EU neighbours. It is unacceptable to have views on the Hard Leave side that do not consider anyone else at all. So sad to see UK like this. Why?

    Do you actually care about other people’s jobs or our neighbours jobs?

    I totally totally agree. It is unacceptable to threaten our neighbours like this. UNACCEPTABLE.

    They’ve been brainwashed. We need to repeat what they are saying so they can actually hear themselves.
